Obama told Netanyahu during their phone call that he objects to his “divisive” election tactics

The “divisive” tactic he’s alluding to is the one the left’s been whining about for three days, i.e. Netanyahu warning Likud voters on election day that turnout among Arab voters was high thanks in part to left-wing groups busing them to the polls. Supposedly that was Bibi’s version of a “southern strategy,” never mind whether it was actually true, never mind that he did nothing to try to prevent Israeli Arabs from voting, never mind that his administration has made strides in integrating the country’s Arab citizens economically.

Liberals like whining about his “southern strategy” because it’s a way for them to delegitimize his huge win and the stinging rebuke to Obama that it implies. And Obama likes whining about it because it’s a fig leaf for him to play hardball with Netanyahu and Israel at the UN. Surely he can’t be expected to partner with a man who’d stoop to that, should we? This is the same guy, mind you, who tried to hold back the giant GOP midterm wave in 2010 by arguing out of his ass that shady foreigners were indirectly bankrolling the Republican Party via secret donations to the Chamber of Commerce. Not 24 hours after the Israeli vote, his pal Dick Durbin was on the floor of the Senate claiming that Republican opposition to Loretta Lynch on amnesty grounds was actually secretly motivated by Jim Crow racial attitudes. How the fark did Netanyahu not hang up on him in disgust at the hypocrisy? Or did he?

Baraq is unhappy that his Acorn style in a foreign election rigging failed.

But, Obama sent attack dog, Paul Begala, to head up the insurrection against Bibi. Talk about the kettle calling the pot black.

WTF? Does Obama think he himself alone has the sole patent on ‘divisive tactics?”

The biggest hypocritical sleazeball race PIMP around! I wouldn’t have taken a call from this schmuck.

Here are the facts

1) Obama has an Iranian double agent (Valerie) advising him
2) He spoke at an event commemorating a HAMAS killer
3) He bankrolled ISIS
4) He supported a mass illegal takeover of America by Honduran invader parasites

What more does anyone need to know?

Obama = AYATOLLAH

That’s interesting.
I thought Begala was a capo for the Clinton Crime Family.
I guess he freelances for the Chicago Mob too?

Divise? This *uckwit in the White Hut has defined it and raised it to an art form. Bibi must be having a grand laugh.

Hopefully Netanyahu thanked Obama for his support and suggested the President attempt intercourse with himself at his earliest convenience.

TV report: Obama left PM ‘with impression US will abandon Israel at UN’
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/3270304/posts

President Barack Obama’s supposed congratulatory call to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Thursday, two days after the Likud leader triumphed in Israel’s elections, was actually a bitter 30-minute conversation, Israel’s two main TV news stations reported Friday night.

Quoting unnamed Israeli sources, they said the president made clear he didn’t believe Netanyahu was genuinely supportive of a two-state solution to the Palestinian conflict, and that he indicated that the US would no longer automatically support Israel at the United Nations.

According to a Channel 10 read out on the call, indeed, Obama left Netanyahu with “the impression that he intends to abandon Israel at the UN.”

The United States has actually been considering a reevaluation of ties with Israel, including its automatic support for the Jewish state at the United Nations Security Council, for at least four months, the Israeli sources also told Channel 2. Although the White House claims the reassessment was prompted by Netanyahu’s remarks on Monday in which rejected the establishment of a Palestinian state — and which he walked back Thursday — that is not the case, according to the officials.

Channel 10 also said Netanyahu was adamant about keeping his ambassador to the US, Ron Dermer, in the job despite heavy American criticism.

Netanyahu backtracked on his no-to-Palestine comments earlier Thursday, saying he still supported a sustainable, peaceful two-state solution, but the White House swiftly dismissed his new, more moderate comments. Asked why the White House was not taking Netanyahu at his word, White House spokesman Josh Earnest retorted, “I guess the question is: Which one?” Earnest said the Obama administration did take Netanyahu at his word — and understood that the prime minister does not envision a Palestinian state being established during his term in office.

— — —

Netanyahu gets HAMMERED by Obama, the New York Times and the UK ... and then on the right, he gets hammered by some Israeli papers and other Nationalists on the right ... LOL ... Netanyahu maintains the same position he’s ALWAYS HAD with negotiating with the PA for forming a Palestinian State. As I suspected and have known from before, Netanyahu’s position on that is reasonable and fair ... and HAS NOT CHANGED!
And on the issue of ARABS In Israel, he made clear what his position HAS ALWAYS BEEN with Israeli Arab Citizens ... they have full rights of any citizen and they will be helped by various social programs as he has always done, and they will NOT be discriminated against. They are FULLY INTEGRATED into Israeli society!

BOTH of those things sounds EXACTLY like the Netanyahu from before and extremely fair. Israel should be EXTREMELY PROUD of Netanyahu as their Prime Minister!

Prime Minister Netanayahu gets SLAMMED by the Left and the New York Times ... AND ... and he gets SLAMMED by the Right and the Israeli papers ... LOL ...

AGAIN ... Netanyahu’s position on being very willing to negotiate with the PA and very willing in forming a Palestinian State has remained the SAME for years ... as he pointed out from his Bar-Ilan speech.

Netanyahu has never been the “holdup” on forming the Palestinian State, it has been the Palestinian Authority who has been the holdup. They don’t want to get the Palestinian State through “negotiations” with Israel, but they want to get it from it being “imposed from the outside” without any conditions attached.

I’m sure Bibi has trouble hiding his absolute contempt for Obama when they meet. Like any lowlife, Obama probably can’t stand anyone who doesn’t kiss his a$$ (or worse).
